The Baffling Behavior Show {Parenting after Trauma}
EP 201: Walking on Eggshells
Living with someone with a vulnerable nervous system almost certainly leaves you feeling like you are walking on eggshells.
It’s that sense of not knowing what’s going to happen next, having to tread lightly, and being constantly at risk of making a misstep that will trigger the other person.
In today’s episode, we are going to break down the neurobiology of walking on eggshells and talk about what you can do to shift out of this pattern- even if you can’t change the other person’s behavior.
In this episode, you’ll learn
- The neurobiology of that ‘walking on eggshells’ feeling
- How to consider the possibility of feeling safe when you are safe
- The impossible set-up our brain puts us in that leaves us stuck feeling like we are walking on eggshells- and what to do about it
